Sen. Lindsey Graham told Fox News on Thursday that he wants to bring back James Comey to testify on Capitol Hill, citing concerns about his statements on the conclusion of the Hillary Clinton email case.
This doesnt add up, and I smell a rat here, Graham, R-S.C., said in an interview with Fox News' Catherine Herridge.
The Republican senator, who chairs a Senate Judiciary subcommittee, and Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, last week revealed new details they learned about the Clinton case from interview transcripts. According to the senators, the transcripts say Comey began drafting an exoneration statement for Clinton weeks before interviewing her which in turn raised questions about the former FBI directors testimony in June before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
At the time, Comey was asked whether his decision to announce the results of the investigation in July 2016 was influenced by then-Attorney General Loretta Lynchs infamous meeting days earlier on an Arizona tarmac with former President Bill Clinton.
Yes, in an ultimately conclusive way, that was the thing that capped it for me that I had to do something separately to protect the credibility of the investigation, Comey said.

Graham said Thursday he doesnt think Comey perjured himself, but suggested the interview transcripts raise questions that must be resolved.
He needs to come back to committee, Graham said.
Graham said there are two issues he wants to discuss.

He just now smells a rat?
You mean other than the rat you've been smelling up McLame's butt?
It’s not a rat, Congressman Jerry Nadler just walked by after eating 5 burritos.
Uh, Comey IS a rat.
He self identified with logic so hidious that it qualified him for a lib arts professorship at your nearest ivy league quota college.
Took a good look at Flake’s poll numbers, eh, Goober?
Don’t talk about it, just do it, you fool.
Yup. Comey IS a rat. So is Graham.
Lindsey Graham always takes a few years to figure it out..and when he does he always acts surprised like “Gee wiz Wally I had no idea Comey was such a snake”
I know. Does he even have a clue as to how STUPID that makes him look?
Graham must have had a head cold for a year..................
Nah forget the Buritos, Just walked by.
Nadler is the epitomy of slimy scum
They all sure are acting nicer recently. Hmmm.
Now we see the basis for FReeper’s many frustrations. Geez Louise, how many of us have had most of this all pieced together months ago? That Graham only now smells a rat confirms that his nose has *ahem* been in the wrong place for too long.
yes...... rat this.
AND put Comey UNDER OATH.
I always say if WE know about this, LOTS of people know it. Also, we see the Awan bunch starting to make deals. What’s with that. CNN has called off their investigative reporting on Trump / Russia.
It’s probably just your upper lip, Lindsey.
Gotta’ admit, Smithers has been pretty good on this.
That was just Comey’s Cologne, “eau de vermin”.

Hey Freepers, we should be Senators since we smelled a rat long before one of our betters, Lindsey Graham.
